How I fixed BWAPP
First off all two words about this web application. BWAPP is the most insecure application ever. Sounds silly and for most users has no sense at all. This app was created to train programmists and administration. It can spot different application issues which are common for programmers beginners.
One day my friend decided to make a ZOOM festival for young students. We created some legends to make tasks interesting. I wrote a small program for moderators and participants to understand and explain the progress and log users' actions, who may attack our fake server inside a virtual machine.
Everything was ok before I upgrade PHP. New PHP appeared more secure than previous, BWAPP stoped work secure issues were blocked.
That was a problem, I don't want to install the old PHP version, so I started checking. Finally, I found the issue in the PDO class connection, and rewrite the main BWAPP class.
